I recently switched from a Voodoo3 3500 to a 3D Blaster Annihilator Pro
(GeForce 256 DDR) so I'm new to the world of nVidia. I've been living (and
loving) in the 3dfx world.

I fought a BIG battle to get it working. Currently using ONLY the 6.18
drivers with no tools or utilities installed.
AGP is running at 2X and side banning is off.

How are these performance tests?
. Q3 Timedemo
1024 X 768 X 16-bit, Maxed.
demo001: 1346 frames, 16.7 seconds: 80.8 fps (49.0 fps with voodoo3 3500
demo002: 1399 frames, 16.9 seconds: 82.7 fps (51.1 fps with voodoo3 3500)
63% increase in frame rate with the GF

1024 X 768 X 32-bit, Maxed.
demo001: 1346 frames, 20.3 seconds: 66.2 fps
demo002: 1399 frames, 20.6 seconds: 68.0 fps ** This is where I play Quake3!

. 3D Winbench 2000:
60.0fps (voodoo3 never broke 49fps)
22% increase in frame rate with the GF

. 3D Mark 2000:
scored 5344 (voodoo3 scored 3110)
71% increase in score with the GF
